Seminar paper from the year 2013 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,3, University of Wü:rzburg (Neuphilologisches Institut), course: Shakespeare's Tragedies, language: English, abstract: This seminar paper is trying to display some designated motifs of gender studies and wants to give an overview of how such an approach to Shakespeare's 'Othello' can be made. Approaching Shakespeare's works under the aspect of gender studies might not been originally intended by the author, however it provides multiple chances of interpretations and varieties of looking at the text. This is why in this seminar paper the literary theory of gender studies will be implemented on Shakespeare's 'The Tragedy of Othello, the Moor of Venice'. Firstly a theoretical approach to Gender Studies is going to lead the way into this paper with an explanation of the main aspects of the Gender Studies theory and why it was chosen for this work. This will be followed by a focus on depictions of women and men and the gender related differences shown in the play. Furthermore a close look on the main characters namely Othello and Iago being the most important male characters and on the other hand Emilia and Desdemona as the main female characters in the play is taken. Main issues discussed are how the characters fit their role in society, female obedience and silence in contrast to male dominance and the need to act as. Also will these main themes be put in contrast with the plot and its development to see the impact of the characters and their gender related behaviour towards it. This will lead to a final analysis of how gender does influence the plot of the tragedy 'Othello' and its outcome. The characters' downfalls that in the end lead to the tragic resolution is being discussed from a view of gender studies theory. The analysis shows how gender influences Shakespeare's drama in detail, which changes the characters go through with the progression of the p

The primary purpose of this report is to describe the background information, methods, and results of a surficial geology inventory within the North Cascades National Park Service Complex (NOCA). This is one of twelve basic inventories called for in the National Park Service (NPS) National Resource Challenge. A secondary goal is to provide an overview of bedrock geology, climate, and hydrology as they affect landform processes. The study area for this report is the Stehekin River Watershed, which includes the main Stehekin River and its tributaries Boulder, Bridge, Flat, Maple, McAlester, Park, and Rainbow Creeks.

When Novalis declared that 'the world must be romanticized,' that it must be restored to its plenary 'meaning, magic, and mystery,' he, like Friedrich Schlegel touts the fragment as the vehicle of this restorative art. The Winds of Ilion is an eclectic work that brings together poetry, academic essay, personal memoir, short-short story, and creative fragments in a manner redolent both of the early German romantics and of the Greek concept of moira. The many different creative threads composing this work weave a fabric of variegated meanings whose scope extends to the disparate events and marginal circumstances both of literary and everyday life. --- 'Steven Joyce's book offers a fascinating combination of various literary forms. Readers will find it both enjoyable and instructive. The author maintains that we can recapture, through reading, the uplifting romantic spirit of an earlier age. I am happy to report that this volume does indeed rekindle that spirit. It did for me.' (Susanna Piontek, member of the PEN Club and of Die Kogge, European Writers' Association)
